FLUXBOX-REMOTE(1) Fluxbox Manual FLUXBOX-REMOTE(1)NAME
fluxbox-remote - command line access to key commands for fluxbox(1)SYNOPSIS
fluxbox-remote command
DESCRIPTION fluxbox-remote(1) is designed to allow scripts to execute most key commands from fluxbox(1). fluxbox-remote(1) will only work with
fluxbox(1): its communications with fluxbox(1) are not standardized in any way. It is recommended that a standards-based tool such as
wmctrl(1) be used whenever possible, in order for scripts to work with other window managers.
CAVEATS fluxbox-remote(1) uses the X11 protocol to communicate with fluxbox(1). Therefore, it is possible for any user with access to the X(7)
server to use fluxbox-remote(1). For this reason, several key commands have been disabled. Users should be aware of the security
implications when enabling fluxbox-remote(1), especially when using a forwarded X(7) connection.
RESOURCES
session.screen0.allowRemoteActions: <boolean>
This resource in ~/.fluxbox/init must be set to 'true' in order for fluxbox-remote(1) to function. Please read the CAVEATS first.
ENVIRONMENT
In order to communicate with fluxbox(1), the DISPLAY environment variable must be set properly. Usually, the value should be ':0.0'.

fbsetbg - Set a background wallpaper or pattern
SYNOPSIS
fbsetbg [-uU wallpapersetter] [-fFcCtTaA] wallpaper
fbsetbg [-uU wallpapersetter] -rR path
fbsetbg -bB fbsetrootoptions...
fbsetbg [-l|h|i|p]
DESCRIPTION fbsetbg(1) is a wrapper that tries to find a suitable background-setting app and then tries to set the wallpaper using that app. You don't
have to configure fbsetbg. It just uses the first app it can find.
Furthermore it supports remembering the last set wallpaper so you don't have to edit the style or init-file to change the wallpaper.
It aims to provide clear error messages in a window that make debugging problems easy.
OPTIONS -f file
Set fullscreen wallpaper.
-c file
Set centered wallpaper.
-t file
Set tiled wallpaper.
-a file
Set maximized wallpaper, preserving aspect (if your bgsetter doesn't support this option fbsetbg falls back to -f).
-u wallpapersetter
Use specified wallpapersetter, use no argument to forget.
-b fbsetrootoptions
Forward the options to fbsetroot(1). These can be used to set a solid, pattern, or gradient background texture.
-r directory
Set random wallpaper from a directory.
-F, -C, -T, -A, -U, -B, -R
